    In 50 years of watching football, I have never, ever heard a crowd make a noise to compare to that day in Buenos Aries. Fantastic.

    Holanda Word Cup - Final: 1974 - Final: 1978 - Semifinal: 1998 - Final: 2010 - Semifinal 2014

    Kempes doesn’t get as much love as Maradona or Messi. Underrated.
  • @merabakerng
    That second Argentine goal is eerily similar to that of Alvarez second goal in the Croatia game in the 22 World Cup where he took the ball and ran, bounced it off a player in the penalty box evaded the keeper and still scored. It's pure magic almost defies the laws of physics
  • In the final which Argentina won, they scored 3 goal (3-1 vs Netherlands, 3-2 vs West Germany and 3-3 vs France)
  • Team Argentina 1978 was fantastic, Kempes and Luque what a great players.

    Kempes was a beast, unbelievable.
  • @RicardoFraka
    Mario (1978) Maradona (1986) Messi (2022) to be able to become champion argentina requires an icon who uses the left foot

    Who’s here after Argentina won WC 2022?

    Three names stuck in different era. Mario, Maradonna, Messie

    Classic celebrations. Remind me of the earlier FIFA video games😂

    Yes, the Dutch were technically awesome but boy, the Argentine attacks were so fluid and impressive. Kempes and Luque were like swashbuckling cavaliers leading one thrilling charge after another.
